As a discipline, the foundations of Industrial Engineering can be traced back to the First Industrial Revolution. Today, as we live through Industry 4.0, the program focuses on the design, implementation and improvement of integrated and complex systems consisting of people, data, equipment, energy and materials. Industrial and Systems Engineers are highly open to interdisciplinary collaboration and they graduate with critical skills such as analytical thinking, systematic approach, modelling and optimization, while having the opportunity to specialize on various systems that exist in many areas such as manufacturing, healthcare, IT, transportation and financial markets.
The solutions developed by Industrial Engineers contribute to the automation and improvement of processes and systems in many areas including –but not limited to– the above. Thanks to its flexible structure, the Department of Industrial Engineering at Istinye University aims to educate its students as highly specialized and self-confident individuals by enabling them to interact with different disciplines throughout their time at Istinye University.
